Appeals

You can appeal the judge’s decision to the Court of Queen’s Bench. The fee for beginning an appeal under the Residential Tenancies Act is much higher than the fee for beginning an application in Provincial Court.

You must also file in the Court of Queen’s Bench copies of the order being appealed and all notices, affidavits, and any other documents that were filed in Provincial Court.

You must serve all these documents (originating notice, order, notices, affidavits, and any other filed documents) on the other person at least three business days before the hearing date that is set out in the originating notice.

Note: Commencing an appeal does not stop the order from taking effect, except when directed by Court of Queen’s Bench.
